M.A. Ford Europe - 25 years and counting! It’s often said that ‘time flies when you’re having fun’, which makes it hard to believe that this year marks M.A. Ford Europe’s 25th anniversary. So, where did all that time go and what have we accomplished? You can see some of our highlights and milestones, here: https://bit.ly/3Plnnnu

Day 1 (for me) at the IAA Munich. Things I learned/refreshed today: 1) Munich is such a lovely city, amazing people and beautiful culture 2) Chinese OEs are extremely aggressive in the EU market: American OEs, be aware.. their perceived quality is outstanding 3) Webasto is a fantastic company: I love my colleagues, the space at the IAA is really great and the booth downtown Odeonsplatz is unbelievably cool 😎! 4) Autoshows are not the same as I used to remember when I was a kid.. now cars are not necessarily the main attraction. 5) do you remember the internal conbustion engines? 6) loafers are not really the best shoes for walking 21,457 steps.

A unique Valve invention (critical for Fast-Cars): A Perfect-Car-Brakeage (For OEM or Startup): ABS-Unique-Valve for Shortest-Brake-Distance: 98% of Max. Physical deceleration: On “Dry-asphalt” with paddles (”Wet-asphalt”). Complete Design (Solid + Drawings). Lower-cost & more-reliable than the two solenoid-valves it replaces. Improve Braking Controllability (=Reduce-casualties). An Abstract-file in my LinkedinProfile (3 more detailed files available).   Thank You, d.baranan1@gmail.com Doron Bar-Anan. Note: Let me send You 5 files on this ABS-Valve (without a section-view to protect my IP). (Although Israeli: The Valve is Hardware not Software🙂) (More: Updating a rigid steering (remains-on-track through bumps and potholes) Note: The ABS valve will replace the expensive Anti-Skid-Servo used for A/C Landing-Braking. I Think My invention is GOOD for Metal Wheels (Train etc.): (even better than for Tires on Asphalt)

First MMA car with new generation of infotainment...

ICYMI: this was a great session diving into the collaboration between BMW Group and Amazon Smart Vehicles. You can watch the full session.

Learn about some to the upcoming Mercedes Adventures coming up soon.

A few more highlights from The Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta.

This is actually very impressive. I can see this technology being introduced more towards supporting climate change.
